G. NEW WILLIAM MORRIS<br />

FLORALS SCARF William Morris (British,<br />

1834–1896) founded his eponymous firm in 1861<br />

to design and produce a full range <strong>of</strong> household goods.<br />

Many <strong>of</strong> his dense patterns were inspired by nature, such as<br />

those seen in our graceful scarf. Its featured print is based on Violet<br />

and Columbine, a wool textile, while its border is adapted from Pink<br />

and Rose, a woodblock-printed wallpaper, both from the <strong>Museum</strong>’s<br />

collection. Silk crêpe de chine. Imported. 18" x 64". 80-018139 $65<br />

K–M. WILLIAM MORRIS PINK<br />

AND ROSE ACCESSORIES Though<br />

his mission was to marry fine design with<br />

everyday objects <strong>of</strong> many categories, it is<br />

William Morris’s wallpaper designs that form<br />

the heart <strong>of</strong> his legacy. Pink and Rose, a<br />

characteristically intricate hand-block-printed<br />

wallpaper (ca. 1890), illustrates his belief<br />

that beauty, imagination, and order are the<br />

essential elements <strong>of</strong> a successful design.<br />

This <strong>Museum</strong> original is the source for our<br />

pretty and practical accessories. Imported.<br />
